                                 mental phenomena (to samsara)?


       
Animosity arises (at the thought) 'that something disadvantageous to me has been done', 'that something disadvantageous to me is being done', 'that something disadvantageous to me will be done', 'that something disadvantageous to me will be done';  animosity arises (at the thought) 'that something disadvantageous to one I asteem and love has been done' ...p... is being done ...p... will be done';  animosity arises (at the thought) 'that something advantageous to one I do not esteem and love has been done ...p... is being done ...p... will be done'.  Besides, animosity also arises without any cause.

There is the view of samanas and brahmanas outside this Teaching that they can attain purity (to realize Nibbana) by means of their morality, by means of their practice, and by means of their morality and practice.  There is such wrong view, wrong view of that nature, the thicket of wrong view, the wilderness of wrong view, the thorny spike of wrong view, the inconsistency of wrong view, the fetter of wrong view, obsession with wrong view, persistent obsession with wrong view, adherence to wrong view, misconception which is wrong view, detestable path, wrong course, wrongness, base of wrong view, tenacity of wrong view.
        ~This is called the bond of wrong view of the practice of morality which binds
              all mental phenomena (to samsara)?


            (1144).    Of those (four bonds), what is the bond of firmly holding a wrong view as
                                'only this is true' which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara)?


       
There are:  the wrong view that 'the world (i.e., the five aggregates) is eternal' is the only truth and other views are false, or that 'the world is not eternal' is the only truth and other views are false;  that 'the world is finite' is the only truth and other views are false, or the 'the world is infinite' is the only truth and other views are false;  that 'the soul is the same as the body' is the only truth and other views are false, or that 'the soul is one thing and the body is another' is the only truth and other views are false;  that 'a sentient being exists after death' is the only truth and other views are false, or that 'a sentient being does not exist after death' is the only truth and other view are false, or that ' a sentient being neither exists nor does not exist after death' is the only truth and other views are false.

        ~This is called the bond of firmly holding a wrong view as 'only this is true'
                which binds all metal phenomena (to samsara).


        Leaving aside the bond of wrong view of the practice of morality, all wrong views are the bond of firmly holding a wrong view as 'only this is true' which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara).
   
       
        (i)  (1489).    What are the dhamma which are bonds?

       
There are four bonds, namely, the bond of covetousness which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara);  the bond of ill-will which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara);  the bond of wrong view of the practice of morality which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara);  and the bond of firmly holding a wrong view as only this is true which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara).
        The bond of covetousness which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara) arises in eight thoughts associated with greed.
        The bond of ill-will which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara) arises in two thoughts associated with distress.
        The bond of wrong view of the practice of morality which binds all mental phenomena (to samsara) and the bond of firmly holding a wrong view as only this is true which binds all metal phenomena (to samsara) arise in four thoughts associated with wrong view.
        ~These are the dhamma which are bonds.
